Next the Samaritan came. He got
down from bis beast; down on his knees
and relieved the sufferer, made him COM
Portable, took him to an inn, paid his
way, and offered to pay whatever more
was necessary to supply his needs at
the inn. Notice the value of the two
pence-two days wages. What a con-
trast in the pity of these three! The
Good Templars have been taking the
part of the Good Samaritan all these
years. Travelling along the highways
and byways we have fed, clothed and
saved the suffering ones. We have
labored to make new men of those who
have fallen among thieves 1t has cost
us time, money and sacrifice. We are
5000 strong and furnish more money
per capita than any other temperance
organization. The Good Templars to-
day furnish more money for the work in
the cause than any other temperan )
organization. As many of you o. nave
been helping us, take your places in
class No. 3.
The Samaritan is willing 10 give time,
money and sacrifice to ''snatch them in
pity from sin and the grave"

CLEVELAND, o., June est was
simply pastime for the st. Louis Browns
to win theirifrst game in this city to-day.

EFFECTIVE PITCHING.
CINCINNATI, June 23-Smith's effec-.
tive pitching, backed by splendid field

day. Although Ramsey was in fine
form and retired seven men ON strikes,

DUE TO LOOSE WORK.
BALTIMORE, June 23.-The defeat of
the Athletics to-day is largely due to
the loose work of both ends of the bat
terry. weighing was very wild and Rob-
inSon could not hold him successfully.
The visitors fielded faultlessly and
batted for three OF four runs, while
three of the runs scored by the home
team were the result of bases on balls.
Davis, Baltimore's third baseman, got
angry at all effort to coach him, and for
his display of temper he was fined $50 by
Manager Barnie. He then refused to
finish tie game and Sommer took his
place, Daniels going to left field. Davis
will be laid off without pay until he
makes all apology for his ungentlemanly
conduct. Score:

LARocQUE's SEVEN ERRORS
Had Something to Do With Yes
terday's Minneapolis Game.

One of the largest crowds of the sea-
son yesterday saw Minneapolis lose to
Des Moines i'll the first half of the game,
and then win in the latter half through
errors on the other side. The game
dragged out to nearly three hours
through the SlowneSs of Winkelman,
but part of it was extremely exciting
and kept the crowd on the fence con
stantly. Hutchinson pitched for Des
MoineS and showed a strong delivery.
Sage found it too strong, and his four
passed balls. with the two wide pitches,
helped in some of the eleven unearned
runs for Minneapolis. Winkleman
pitched strong game throughout, and
of the eight hits made three were after
the side should have been out and two
were scratches. Shaw was unable to
play, and Patton made three errors in
his place, but his playing was good
as compared with Iarocque, who
piled up seven frightful errors. Faatz's
errors were failures to hold two balls
which Hutchinson sent to him like can.
non shot. The play of BroSnan for Des
MOines and Meister for Minneapolis was
brilliant and errorleSS. Murray was
hardly well enough to play, and his
throwing was not up to the standard.
but he caught Winkleman's rather
erratic delivery without skip. Fos-
ter'S work in center and Hawes' on first
were excellent. Des MoineS started it's
scoring in the first inning, two runs
coming in on Lorocque'S hit, PattOn's
tumble and Murray'S overthrow of third
base. In the third Hutchinson's hit,
two stolen bases and a wild pitch
brought in another. In the fourth five
hits and throw to second brought
in three earned runs. In the mean
time, Minneapolis had scored one
run each in the second and fourth in
nings, Klopf making both on fumbles
by Larocque, followed by hits by Meis-
ter. The game stood to 2, and Mime
apOlis stock was away down; but after
this the home team pulled itself to-
gether and began hitting Hutchinson,
while Des MoineS started in on errors,
at the same time failing to hit Wrinkle
man, getting one solitary hit in FIVE inn
ings. In the fifth hits by Foster,
Flynn, Meister and Willis with Van
dykes muff and a wild pitch, brought
in three runs. In the next, Wrinkle
mans two Dagger and FaatZ's error put
two men on bases; Foster went
out and Alvord's poor throw filled
the bases. Klopf hit little ball
toward the pitcher, and Faatz got it
and tried to beat him to the base, but
Klopf got there first and three runs
came in. In the eighth Lorocque
got in two more errors and AlvOrd one,
foster and Halves clearing the bases
scored in the ninth Oh bases Oh balls to
Winkleman and Patton and a hit by
Foster. Jack Bennett replaced Lay as
umpire and gave general satisfaction on
all close decisions, of which there were

MINNEAPOLIS NOTES.
Eau Claire will reappear on the Minneapo-
lis ground to-day, and after its victory over
Milwaukee yesterday warm game may be
expected. HandibOe and Lang will proba-
bly, be the battery Klopf and Murray VIII

will be as follows: Winkleman, If; Patten,
RI; Foster, CT; Halves, 1b: Meister 2b; Flynn,
3b; Shaw, IS; Klopf, p; Murray, c.
In answer to a correspondent the state
ment is made that when fielder, in throw
ing to base, throws so as to strike the
ground before reaching the baseman, and the
latter fails to get the ball, the error Is charged
to the thrower. Also, that when batted
ball is too hot for an intelder to handle, a
hit is scored and, in eases of doubt, the
fielder exempted from error.
II. W.-The several Minneapolis pitchers
have played i'll games won ana lost as FOL
lows: Tuckerman won s, lost 4; Winkleman
won D, lost 3; Willis won B. lost 3: Moriarity
won l, lost 3. There were five other games
in which pitchers were changed, and where
1t is difficult to say to which the credit or dis
credit belongs
Jack Bennett made good umpire and was
not influenced by the elamors of the crowd.
1t was refreshing change from Lay.
Harry Sage is too light a catcher for the
speed of Hutchinson. but with Wells or Bittle
or Feach his work is superb.

SALTWATER RACES.
Some Well Contested Events Be-

Special to the Globe.

CpeCidl W tuc OlOUc
SALTWATER, MIMI, JUNE 22.-The
third day of the races opened up more
propitious than was the previous day.
The light drilling rain of the day be-
fore did no material damage to the race
track, and the condition of the atmos-
phere had considerably SOftened, leav-
ing one free to roam around without an
Overc0at. The horses were all in Splen-
did condition, and seemed only too anX-
i0uS to best their speed. The crowd, if
anything, was larger than that of the
first day, but smaller than the second.
The pacing of Mike Wilkes on Wednes-
day was drawing card, and conse-
quently the attendance was much
larger on that day than ON any other
during the meeting. Dan Woodmansee,
A. +. Long and Mr.. Beaupre were
d. f. Hersey as timekeepers and
Dan Woodmansee to start. Pools
had been very heavy at the
Sawyer house, and on the grounds the
bidding on different horses was quite
lively. In the three-minute race, call
ed first, but three entries were made.
namely: Daisy Wilkes, Stmggler and
Commotion. 1t was understood that
Glass Leader was to be entered in this
race, but for some reason he did not APP
pear, and rumOr has it that his driver
pulled him because few days ago the
horse speeded up to 2:15 or thereabouts.
and it was thought best not to enter
him on the track to-day. This of course
is but rumOr, as nothing can be ascer-
tanned from reliable sources. In the
first heat of the race the horses got
away nicely after few attempts, and
it was evident after the last quarter

THE NATIONAL LEAGUE.
A Thirteen Inning Tie Game a,
Chicago--Other Contests.

CHICAGO, June 23.-Chicago and
Philadelphia played thirteen innings to-
day without reaching any result. The
game finally was called on account of
darkness. In the first few innings Phil
adelphia hit Baldwin freely and had no
trouble in making runs, and during the
same time they made enough errors, so
that Chicago, with the aid of an occa-
sional hit, piled up scores. But after the
fifth Philadelphia stopped both hitting
and error making, and the consequence
was that there were succession of
blanks until it got too dark to PLAY
longer. The weather was cold and only
800 spectators were present. Score:

A KICK AT DULUTH.
The. Umpire and Nine Oshkosh
Men Win a Game.

Special to the Globe
DULUTH, Mimi, June 23.-It took ten
innings and an incompetent umpire to
win the game for Oshkosh, and the
crowd and players shouted themselves
hoarse at the rocky decisions. Consid-
siderable money is known to have been
bet on the game. The Duluth players
Outplayed the opposing team, but were
called out at different bases with a total
disregard of the fact that they were per-
fectly safe. In the ninth inning when
time was called on account of a trifling
accident to Mcmillan, all the players
ran to his assistance. During the con-
fusion which followed, one of the Osh-
koSh men who was on second base at the
time mingled with the crowd who ran
to McMillan's aid and On the return
when play was called took station at
the third bag. The Duluth players OBJ
served this and demanded that he be
ordered back to second, but the umpire
refused to do SO until the volume of
suggestive hints from the audience of
chang him" rats" etc., caused him to
change his mind and place the man
where he rightly belonged. Quiet was
restored and the game proceeded, re-
Suiting in the defeat of the home team

The Lurlines Kick.

I, Members of the Lurline boat club
are very indignant at the announce
ment that the Minnesota club of ST..
Paul will not enter crew in the Win
alpeg regatta, under the auspices of the
Minnesota and Winnipeg Rowing asso-
citation. They understand the Mime
sofas will send crew to Pullman, and
5fie combined facts have aroused their
re. A member said yesterday: II
thlnk it is contemplate piece of bust
ness in them to neglect their own assO-
citation and then go away as far as Chi
cago. With the understanding they
were coming in, we put crew in train
ing to meet them and now they will not
come: They should certainly encour-
age these home regattas, and after their
former success could afford to send a
crew to Winnipeg, even if they do lose.
mere is great deal of feeling in our
club over this, and we think the Mime
sofas should know ito
